Muntjak vs Nashorn

Kurze Zwischenmeldung weil bei mir gerade sehr viel los ist, ich aber Bescheid geben will, dass ich noch da bin. Ab nächster Woche dann auch wieder wie gewohnt und in regelmäßig.

Neulich in Breslau:

A 13kg deer decided to take on a 1.7-tonne rhinoceros in a curious confrontation at Wroclaw Zoo in Poland on Friday (9 January).

The Chinese Muntjac, a small deer species native to Asia, fearlessly engaged with its huge opponent.

Despite the substantial size difference, the small creature repeatedly approached the much larger mammal, which appeared to respond playfully.

Wroclaw Zoo wrote on Facebook: “His partner is in heat, and the bachelor is pumping with testosterone. He needs to release his energy and show who’s boss – even if his sparring partner weighs 1.7 tonnes.

Nashornbaby ahmt seine Mutter nach

Lernen durch nachmachen ist unter Säugetieren ja durchaus geläufig. Dabei zuzusehen, wie ein Nashornbaby das Verhalten seiner Mutter nachahmt allerdings, ist dann doch noch mal ganz besonders entzückend.

It’s so beautiful to see them together. What momma’s doing, baby’s also doing same. The baby rhino will stay up to three years together with mother. …Her ears using as antennae for listening for danger in the jungle Like all the mothers in the world, she’s also protecting her baby too.

Wie klingt eigentlich Nashornnachwuchs?

Offensichtlich so und damit ganz anders als ich erwartet hätte.

These two baby white rhinoceroses, Kombe and Nyoni, were being taken care of by a wildlife veterinarian and his family in Hluhluwe, South Africa after their mother’s were killed by poachers. They usually made these noises in anticipating their next milk feeding.
